Barney Caine: You trade lives and human dignity for profit.Adam Steiffel, Chairman Titan Oil: "Money, not morality, is the principal commerce of civilized nations." Thomas Jefferson, 200 years ago. That is the philosophy that built this nation.Barney Caine: What do you know about this nation? When did you ever give a second thought to American citizens? You're the reason their money's worthless. You're the reason old people are eating out of garbage cans, and kids get killed in bullshit wars. You're not in the oil business, you're in the oil shortage business. You're an ivory tower hoodlum. A common street killer. I wish to Christ there was some way I could nail you...Adam Steiffel, Chairman Titan Oil: Well... you're gonna' be nailing the American Dream, Barney. Because it all started in the corner gas station. Remember, you used to take your bike down there and get free air. And daddy said, "Fill them up, Fred." And you go down to grandma's for Christmas dinner. Yeah. Then, when you got your first car, what did you do? You took your girl for a ride. There was Fred smiling by the pump there. He never let you down, because a gallon of gas never broke down. Well, it was oil that nourished the American Dream. We're the great American tit, Barney. And without it... ain't no America.
